                           RYANAIR BEATS BA - AGAIN!

                    RYANAIR GROWS 18% AS BA SHRINKS by 2.5%

Ryanair today (Wednesday, 4th July 2007) welcomed the news that it carried 45%
more passengers than British Airways' worldwide traffic in June.

Ryanair's Head of Communications, Peter Sherrard said:

        'Once again consumers have confirmed resoundingly that Ryanair is the
        World's Favourite Airline.

        'Last month huge passenger demand for Ryanair's guaranteed lowest fares
        and best customer service delivered 18% growth. Meanwhile British
        Airways shrank in size as consumers abandoned its high fares and
        multiple fuel surcharges.

        'When it comes to delivering what passengers want - the lowest fares and
        on-time flights - Ryanair beats BA time and time again'.
